Also, totally unfair on ASM given he’s not British to be begin with. It was talked about in the media regards Henderson. Not sure what you are talking about or point is regarding ASM.

Probably not for most, but ASM was only signed in fairness to help us make other signings Taking up a slot at a top club, so move him on and get better named players in. Need Almiron / Wilson willing to do same. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

There’s a reason why the big clubs never wanted to sign him which is same reason why we upgraded that position first chance we got.

There’s a reason why the big clubs never wanted to sign him which is same reason why we upgraded that position first chance we got. It’s more down to consistency than work ethic or “being a team player”. I was surprised to see Maxi's goals per game isn't that far off some of our other notable French wingers/attackers : Hatem : 72 apps 12 goals Ginola : 58 apps 6 goals Robert : 129 apps 22 goals Maxi : 111 apps 12 goals Can't see the assists though. Statistics need context, and the context here is that often Maxi was the sole ball carrier and goal threat at times, he got so much more of the ball due to the lack of quality around him whereas the other players in this list had less share of the ball. Any of the other players in this list above would have probably scored many more goals if they were the only threat or ball carrier in their team - Hatem/Ba/Cisse, Ginola/Beardsley/Ferdinand/Lee, Robert/Shearer/Solano/Lee, Maxi/Perez/Rondon/Wilson Puts Gordon in a good light : Gordon : 51 apps 12 goals in a team with Bruno/Isak/Trippier as the main ball carriers/threats. I hadn't realised how prolific Gordon was when compared to Hatem and Robert. He's actually beating Robert for goals per game, and has fantastic work-rate off the ball. Maxi has good qualities but just isn't an elite player, and as you say @Dr Jinx, if he was he wouldn't be playing for Fenerbache. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sean Posted August 7, 2024 Share Posted August 7, 2024 He never developed a real footballing brain, and that sadly kept him a long way away from being in any elite category. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
